TTT (Tacos, Tortas, and Tequila) at 8407 Ramsey Ave in Silver Spring will be closing on November 29, according to a report by Washingtonian Magazine.

The location was previously split between TTT and Mexican sit-down restaurant Buena Vida, which were both owned by the same hospitality group (Street Guys Hospitality). Buena Vida closed in August, 2020 and TTT took over the remaining portion as a way of offering more delivery and carryout options, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
